> ✅ We plan to add more contextual reports in the coming months. If you haven’t found the report you need, it may be available soon. In the meantime, we encourage you to contact our [Support Team](https://appfire.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/11) to drop your suggestion on the report you would like to see in BigPicture.

## Permissions and access

### Permissions

To view the contextual reports, a user must have at least the [Box Viewer](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918668158) role. To manage and edit contextual reports in any module, the user must have the Box Admin or Box Editor role. 

When the user lacks permissions to certain boxes, tasks, or OKRs, the report displays data for the boxes/tasks/OKRs to which the user can access.

In such a case, the "Only your set of data is taken into account" message displayed at the bottom of the report informs you of this.

### Access

Contextual reports are available in every [box scope type](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918766536) and [box type](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPM/pages/1918830000) except the Home/root box.
